Draper 38255 5 Speed Hobby Bench Drill, 350W, 580mm Height

Product Information

We like the sturdy base too – it is durable, but only 160x160mm and therefore is a great space-saving option. The Pillar Bench Drill from Sealey is perfect for light industrial, woodworking, and agriculture applications. The base is usually made of heavy materials like cast iron and is either grouted or bolted to the workbench.

A minor problem with the control box was sorted immediately, and my son has turned most of the trees in my garden into candle sticks. This model from Dart has 12 speeds ranging from 230 RPM to 2470 RPM giving you a wide area to exercise control over. Goods remain the property of Sitebox Ltd until paid for in full as per our full terms and conditions.

While any of the ten products listed could be a viable option, our top pick is the Clarke CDP5RB 5-speed pillar drill. For precision drilling through lighter materials, the best pillar drill in the UK is a great machine to have.

Keeping this in mind, the Sealey Pillar Bench Drill has 16 speeds ranging between 210 RPM to 3340 RPM. Supplied with a telescopic chuck guard and a front mounted NVR switch for added convenience and safety.

The base supports large workpieces, while the pillar drill has a tilting table for angular drilling. The motor and drilling speeds can also be adjusted from 0 to 8500 RPM, giving you greater control and precision.
